Edna sweater
Description
The Edna sweater is a classic cable knit sweater with a twist. The cables are placed asymmetrically across the front and back, giving the sweater a unique and interesting look while also making it really fun to knit. The sleeves are likewise decorated with cables and seed stitch. Both the body, sleeves, and neckline are finished with a 2x2 ribbing, adding a luxurious touch to the sweater. I hope you’ll enjoy knitting the Edna sweater as much as I enjoyed designing it!
The pattern has been tested, but this was done before the pattern was published on Ravelry.
The cable panel remains the same across all sizes; for the larger sizes, additional seed stitches are added at the sides.
